But also in Italy where Inter would seek to make room for him, ready to sacrifice Alexis Sanchez in particular to compete even more with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. A rumor fueled recently by the former French goalkeeper of the Nerazzurri Sébastien Frey.

The defense has its say

His lawyer, Me Vigier, himself rekindles the rumor, in an interview with BFM TV: “ When you are at this level and your results are a little less good at a given moment, people immediately say that it is the end of your career.
